Further boosting its forward, eco-conscious brand image, COS has recently inaugurated a revamped store at home base Stockholm that signals the brand’s increased effort to do things the right way. The fashion brand’s retail space on Biblioteksgatan has been selected for this makeover, and sees an new design concept, created by COS‘ in-house design team. The chosen design codes are supported by various specialists, allowing the creation of a fully circular store environment that will be used as a blueprint for other COS stores across the planet. The retail space measures a spacious 566 sqm. (6,092 sq.ft.) spread across two floors and the design incorporates 66% more recyclable materials than previous COS stores.
The two floors feature a backdrop of whitewashed walls and flooring of stone tiles, and are furnished with timber display and storage units and matching seating, and metal clothing racks. Homey seating areas add up to the welcoming vibe and include a curated selection of paintings and sculptures by artist Liselotte Watkins who is inspired by vintage aesthetics and antique objects. Mind you, the pieces will be available for customers to view for a limited time, while later in the season new works created specifically for the space will be introduced as well as the opportunity to purchase limited edition prints. The new COS store stocks the full range of women’s and men’s apparel, accessories, shoes, bags, and jewellery pieces.

Publishers Note
Just to be clear – superfuture® is a design blog and not a political commentator. No surprise there. The scope of our content has always been global and borderless, however that can often mean covering projects in countries where we will not agree with the politics or actions of those countries. In a world that’s as screwed up as ever right now, the focus of our support is to those designers, architects and other creatives who aim to make the world a more liveable one – as opposed to people that try their hardest to destroy it. So if a project hits our desk and we like it based on its design credentials, we may choose to publish regardless of its location or creators nationality. superfuture® has always been inclusive and hopes for all current wars, aggression, violence, hate and extremism to end.
